Rake Stemware Holder

Rake Stemware Holder

Take advantage of your vertical wall space by hanging a rake head and suspending stemware from its tines. We found one of these rakes at the Country Living Fair in Columbus, Ohio, for $3, but you'll likely find them at a yard sale, or even on Etsy.

Step 1: Remove the handle. Carefully cut it off (or ask your local hardware store to do it) and sand the cut end.

Step 2: Use a 3/16" metal drill bit to drill two holes per rake head directly into the center of the handle's back side, spacing them about an inch apart. Using either 3" toggle bolts or 3" anchor screws (available at any hardware store), screw the rake heads into the wall — making sure they're hanging upside down and are level. You can use the same trick in your bedroom for a practical tie-and-belt rack or to hang your most tangle-prone necklaces.
